China has seen an increasing demand for imported goods, not only in big cities but also in small ones.
In the near future, Chinese consumers are likely to see more imported goods in their daily lives. After the latest round of trade talks between China and the US, China said it's willing to increase imports from the US and the rest of the world. Discussions also centered on agriculture and energy.
Although details still need to be confirmed and ironed out, Hua Chunying, spokesperson of China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said on Monday that “the door to negotiations and consultations is always open, and we are sincere in wanting to resolve relevant issues through negotiations.”
It's been a month since the first round of trade negotiations. Washington’s style is a mix of negotiations and threats, with unexpected moves sprinkled in.
Beijing has been clear that all achievements to be reached in the third round of talks should be based on the promise that there won’t be a trade war, and that the US should refrain from further sanctions.
